Memphis Squash bowl

Memphis Squash Bowl is a decorative object in ceramic designed by Maria Sánchez in 1985 for Memphis Milano, one of the most iconic names in postmodern design. Measuring 150 mm in width, this bowl fully embodies the spirit of the Memphis movement: vibrant colours, bold geometric shapes and deliberately unconventional compositions that transform each piece into a true work of art.

The bowls of the Squash series are distinguished by the use of saturated tones and surprising colour combinations — from the encounter between yellow and light blue to the contrast of deep red and black, through to fluorescent shades that challenge every chromatic convention. Added to this is a dynamic interplay of forms: diagonal parallelepipeds, squares and curves intertwine, creating objects that seem almost in motion. The hand-painted surfaces emphasise the handcrafted soul of each piece, lending uniqueness and warmth to the work. Perfect for enriching a living room or any space where design takes centre stage, each variation in the series celebrates the Memphis philosophy: a design that combines functionality and decoration with irony and a joyful subversion of the rules.
